Everyone has an opinion on Haynesworth's situation, from fans, to writers, to players and even his ex-wife--who, keeping with her title as Haynesworth's ex-wife, had little good to say about the Pro Bowl lineman.

Indeed, most of those who have weighed in believe that Haynesworth is making a mistake in sitting out this offseason, in which the new regime of Shanahan and Allen are attempting to build the foundation of a hopefully more successful season in 2010, part of which is a new defense--of which Haynesworth isn't a fan.

"I think if you’re going to be a big-time guy, which we call the “Confident Guy,” at the end of the day, you should be able to play different positions, and I know he can do it," Ware said. "It’s if he wants to do it or not. And I think he needs to do whatever he needs to do to help the team out but everybody has different opinions."

"Your days of long suffering, of pain, of working out and countless hours of suffering, they're for a reason," Lewis said. "To fulfill a legacy, chasing something. And nowadays, where everything gets this dispute here, and I don't want to do this, I don't want to do that. See, when I was coming up, we didn't have that choice, to tell an adult -- no matter who it was -- what we weren't gonna do."
